Even our usually chronically over-optimistic Facebook banter group seem to be expecting the worst and believe me, that is scarily unusual. Surely Kear will have toughened them up over the last couple of weeks? He wasn't happy, so can't imagine training has been easy since. I think if it was at The Shay, I might have agreed too. But the tight pitch at Dewsbury will even things up. Best of luck anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swinton in three weeks looking most likely place to get a first win . No guarantee of them winning at Swinton. They will be no pushovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 10 hours ago, Wakefield Ram said: Think Widnes wouldn't beat anyone with the number of errors they made. Rams were workman-like. 5 drives and a kick works in some circumstances. May be boring but gets results. Widnes are really ####### me off. They somehow managed to let Tim Sheens leave over what was a stupid penny pinching move surrounding back room staff, binned off the academy, so obviously no long term ambition. The only player the new coach has brought in was Adam Lawton who’s a liability. A class player on this day but extremely lazy and can’t offload like he used to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SL keeping the money plus Covid did that in. 2019 Admin 2020 Covid. Widnes like Bradford just need a normal season and go again. Unlike Bradford, they still have great infrastructure and good people in charge. They'll come good again. And let's hope they do, as you say a lot of things already in place at Widnes for them to rise again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The penny pinching comment was about a back room staff member who was let go against the wishes of the head coach, who subsequently left. Poor move by the club Widnes could have ran their academy this season as their licence only ran out next season, but deemed it too expensive to keep on, probably giving up on SL membership for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 6 minutes ago, ShropshireBull said: Why spend half a million, after a pandemic no less, when SL withheld your funding last time and will probably be giving you the boot next year? I want Widnes to have an academy but if the SL clubs that benefit wont support it then asking Widnes to find a full time academy at a part time club is absurd. I want Widnes to have some semblance of ambition, something that sets us apart from our rivals. Now we’re just another small PT club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Taylor Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 HT 26 - 0 to Fev. Best first half of the season from a Fev point of view. Looking a lot more consistent and playing as a team. Making less mistakes. I guess the word in the changing room will be to go out and nil Swinton - that will give them real confidence. 2008 RFL Wakefield & District Young Volunteer of the Year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me if he was rested and I could see Nu Brown being rested next week. Would explain why Hardy didn't play and Minns did. Best we've played all season, even in that second half - there was less mistakes than previous weeks. Good result, good performance, season now really started for them. Nice to see Davies back in the team - he's one of the best in the league.

Scubby Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Great win for Featherstone. All the damage done in the first half. Also takes them to the top of the table after Toulouse only managed to beat London by 24. Halifax v Bradford will be an interesting one to see where this league is shaping up.
